Ok, it builds and boots again. I've merged milaq's latest changes and also updated to use 4.4.3 toolchain. I've also undone some of the things I was testing for now and I moved it into the CyanogenModXT720 github organization. So, if you want to build it, use:

repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenModXT720/android -b froyo

The todo list before the next release is:

Update the usb code (we currently use an ugly hack, but peshovec fixed Usb.apk build in our CM7 so we should be able to use that)

Fix wifi as suggested by nadlabak (need to rebuild a kernel module)

After that the next things I'm going to work on are:

Merge in the AOSP froyo security update from last week

Sensors for modsbf

Get motorola's camera working

Fix screenshot from power menu

Finally finish FM radio update (to fix the volume problem)

Longer term I want to look into porting some things I like from CM7 (ring lock, power off anim, overscroll)

@Mioze

when ever you get chance, can you please put everything together for a CyanogenMod 6.3.0 RC4?

or maybe add a link on your OP to the post # where the RC4 is located?

Thanks
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
I wouldn't bother with RC4 at this point because the next one should be out today or tomorrow. The only thing in RC4 was the fm radio fix. The new build will be 6.3.5 with a bunch of things from milaq. I'll post it in the thread first to make sure others are able to install it before I put it on the first post. I've grown to dislike all the hotfix frenzy that follows when I release too quickly.

[Milestone XT720 Android Development] AllGamer:
i'll help you test it out when it's ready

my XT720 has become officially my Dev toy device, or as a backup phone where i need a more durable small phone to carry with me than the fragile newer devices :p

the XT720 has better phone reception than the newer devices so it's holding its primary mandate better than other phones, that i've had thus far.

I really, really, really want to kill Usb.apk.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] thejaycan:
MZ, what exactly is the problem with the usb.apk? And I'm assuming this must just be a problem for CM 6.3.5? I haven't had any problems with the usb connection in 6.3.0-RC3, but IIRC I did have problems in CM7.1.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
Yes in the new build I'm working on. Actually, I just noticed the sdcard isn't mounting so maybe I've been blaming the wrong thing.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
Now we're cooking with gas

Here's a first build of 3.6.5 to test. Finally figured out that cursed Usb problem (two small mistakes in the end).

update-cm-6.3.5.1-MilestoneXT720-signed.zip (80.09 MB)

http://www.multiupload.com/XTJ3M6S89S

New features in 3.6.5 are listed on milaq's page: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1155454 (I haven't verified that they work, so if something's missing let me know).

The wifi module has been recompiled from nadlabak's sources, hopefully that will help with some of the connection problems.

This is also using the reverse-engineered/rewritten Usb.apk adapted for XT720 by fjfalcon/peshovec.

Source has been transferred to the CyanogenModXT720 organization on github: http://github.com/CyanogenModXT720 (froyo branches), my repositories are obsolete.

Credits: milaq, nadlabak, fjfalcon, peshovec, skrilax_cz, many others

Plans: fix bugs reported here (or on github). Otherwise focus on fixing the orientation sensor for modsbf (may take a while).
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] molohov:
Thanks for the awesome release, Mioze! I downloaded it ASAP!

I had to do a factory/data reset upon installing. Wasn't expecting this coming from the other 6.3.0 RCx roms, where I didn't need to! Just a heads up for everyone.

If you want a gingerbread theme, the framework has changed, but I found that Milaq's works fine!

https://github.com/downloads/milaq/android/theme-Gingerbread-v10.zip

Once I get the source code synced up to a buildable state, I want to see if I can integrate the LED functionality (if you're not already working on it, MZ!), and crack the screenshot issue.

Cheers!

Camera is working OK now?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
I was having Market problems and found this post from Milaq's thread solved my problem:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=18741202&postcount=746

i.e. use CyanogenMod's gapps-hdpi-20101114-signed.zip as recommended for 6.3.0-RC3 but then update the market to 3.1.3 (I used adb from openrecovery to just replace /system/app/Vending.apk with the 3.1.3 version).

Also, I am running this on modsbf (with screen autorotation disabled). One problem is that the smaller /cache partition gets pretty full after the gapps have been added into /system (i.e. it was 99% full when I checked--it boots but nothing can download from the market). To fix that I first edited /system/build.prop to set (the first one was already there, you need both):

dalvik.vm.dexopt-cache-only=0
dalvik.vm.dexopt-data-only=1

Then I wiped cache in OpenRecovery and rebooted. Another approach would be to make a smaller google apps package by removing a lot of the extra stuff that can be installed from the market (and maybe eventually port/use that pacman app that CM7 uses to automate that install).

Also, this ICS theme for milaq's 6.3.5 didn't work for me (it booted fine, but I couldn't get into Settings and things were a little weird) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1345059

I enabled led notification in part of the configuration overlay for this build, but I don't know if there's more needed. https://github.com/CyanogenModXT720...mmit/0b2105fdfba575d6b64841249903e7167e95c888

I didn't make any changes to Camera since RC3/4. I remember being OK with camera/camcorder in RC4 after I finally deciphered how the settings menus worked. I think stock/Bravo are still better.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] banshee56:
You say that you are running this on the modsbf. At the release of the modsbf, there wasn't a CM6.3 bootfix ready. Does this update need a bootfix?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] molohov:
I think there is still more needed. The CyanogenMod settings aren't able to activate them, let alone other apps. This will be a fun weekend project :)
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
Yes it needs one, but it doesn't exist yet :). It works fine without except for the orientation sensor being wrong. Mostly that means autorotate doesn't work correctly, but it may affect camera, too (i.e. orientation of saved images). The bootfix has fixed sensors for gingerbread, but doesn't work on froyo/eclair.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] nikctsh:
Sorry I'm not sure what is happening here ... why so sudden Mioze's CM6 rom change to Milaq's CM6 rom ? Is this rom developed by Mioze ? And one mentioned that we have to factory reset to flash CM 6.3.5 ? So IF I didn't flash it now , and for further update (until it return to Mioze's CM 6.x.x rom? ) , in case I flash it , do I still need to factory reset ?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
It's always been a port of milaq's ROM (which used to be nadlabak's) and I am customizing it for XT720. I just felt that milaq deserved more credit.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] AA1973:
Edit too slow on the phone ...Because it is based on Milaq's CM6 port, which was at the beginning developed by nadlabak/kabaldan (who then moved on to CM7)

And yes, it's powered by Mioze. :)

MIUI 1.12.2 - Milestone XT720
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] molohov:
Just be sure you do a nandroid/TI backup before you flash it. Someone else mentioned they didn't have to factory reset, so maybe I just had bad luck!

[Milestone XT720 Android Development] banshee56:
In the notes of this and the 6.3.4 release, Milaq states:

Relative to the two entries I've highlighted regarding Gmaps, I assume he's talking about a hack similar to the one that's enabled in the build.prop tweaks:

If the Gmaps hack in the 6.3.5 release is not the same as the build.prop tweak, how can we determine if the hack is a) enabled properly, and b) working properly.

My priorities for my XT720 are about RAM and stability, both of which make this phone decent to use. The Gmaps service is constantly running, and although I use Gmaps and navigation on occasion, I don't use the other apps that rely on the NetworkLocationService to tolerate the reduction in RAM when it runs needlessly.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] peshovec:
if the functionality is implemented in the framework (activitymanager.java as i remember), then you have the choice:

1. to make gmaps location service killable (when gmaps don't need it)

2. to leave it immortal and memory leak/eat -er

if you choose 1. then you have to have persist.sys.gmaps_hack=1 in the build.prop

if you choose 2. then you have to have persist.sys.gmaps_hack=0 in th build.prop.

enabled by default means, the you start with persist.sys.gmaps_hack=1 in the build.prop.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] mchlbenner:
Simple remove it.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] banshee56:
I understand that the framework mods have to be made....is that something I can check by viewing that file? I've tried to locate it but cannot. I also have the hack line in the build.prop but the NetworkLocationService still seems to run. Was hoping for this to work well to regain precious RAM when not

running Maps.

Wait...does this mean that the service is killable via human action versus Android doing it automatically?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] peshovec:
i don't know how you can check it on the phone (ok i have idea, but it can lead to bad things...)

if this functionality is implemented, depends of the rom you are using. nadlabak has it in the framework, as i understand milaq too, so mioze7ae too

when the functionality is implemented and gmaps.hack enabled you don't have to do anything, the location service will be let to die automatically, when not needed by gmaps.

you don't have to kill any application on the phone

Is this better than fjfalcons 2.3?
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] mchlbenner:

[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
Opinion: Honestly my experiment with gingerbread as my daily driver the last month was a failure. Esp. compared to, say, Bravo which I still think is the ROM to beat. When I flashed my primary phone back to RC4 and restored all my apps and settings this week the phone felt reborn. You can tweak both to have lots of free ram but at least at the moment gingerbread seems to suffer more from the effects of memory pressure and at least for me battery life has been attrocious. In the end the only things I really noticed were different in gingerbread were the ring lockscreen, power off animation, and battery monitoring. Anyway that's what makes horseraces. CM7 will get better, but CM6 can do some catching up. No need to put all our CM eggs in one basket.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Woody:
Excellent and humble analogy. You are doing a fantastic job. For awhile there I felt you were spreading yourself too thin between all the builds. I am sure it is tough with only about 5-6 people who know the code. Many thanks.
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] mchlbenner:
Hi

If people would follow directions they would not have problem with cm7 day four no reboot ram still in upper 70 and mid 80s.

If you put over 100 apps on phone your phone will likely run slower.

I do like bravo and cm6 but until I can find a sensor fix this were I will stay the fix is for xt720mod sbf.

Great work mz on cm6.

Changes since 6.3.5.1:

Build is now ODEXed (reduces size of /cache/dalvik-cache) may or may not break themes -- needs testing

Fjfalcon's CM7 media button fix backported

Nadlabak's powervr.ini gains 2MB free RAM

Torch works again

New minimal gapps for CM6 -- includes newest Market 3.4.4

Added pacman (CyanogenMod app used to install other gapps from Market -- only shows up after factory reset)

Removed some bloat (QuickOffice/PersonalPortal) -- we don't include those in CM7 and it doesn't seem like anyone misses them.

Some cleanup in the source tree.

Short of fixing that pesky screen rotation and video recording, this about makes this ROM perfect for my needs. RAM always seems to be better than in CM7, and I can run SetCPU in CM6 to get some decent battery life.

Thanks!

EDIT: APN didn't auto-populate like normal. Tried to enter CBW WAP settings and it keeps asking for MCC number. I did flash the CBW baseband update before restarting, so maybe that is the problem. Will go update this build again and report back.

The most stable ROM for me now. Camera bug on previous release are gone. I took up to 80 8MP superfine pics continously without force close or bootloop.

Only GPS not locked yet. But I test it in my room as I used to. On the other rom, GPS can lock even in my room.

Once I got several different ROMs working decently (CBW Froyo, CM6.3.5.1, & Milaq CM7.1 latest), I did a nandroid backup on each. I went back to the CM6.3.5.1 nandroid before loading the 6.3.5.3 build update.

Is anyone running 6.3.5.3 on top of the modXT720 sbf?

I've seen some people say that they have to select Settings > Language&Keyboard > Select Language > English(United States) to get the market to stop FC (even if it was already set that way). I haven't had that problem myself, though.

Yeah, did that and still the same. Very puzzling... I even went back and reapplied the GApps update for 6.3.5.3. May be time to start over with everything.

[off topic] When I did the nandroid update to CBW Froyo (which was on top of the original CBW 2.1 ROM), I can no longer get to OpenRecovery without applying the update from the modXT720 sbf. Do I need to reflash the modXT720 sbf and go through that whole OpenRecovery procedure? [/off topic]
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] Mioze7Ae:
If you're on modXT720 sbf you can *always* get into openrecovery via apply update in Motorola's stock recovery (well, assuming you didn't damage your sdcard).
[Milestone XT720 Android Development] banshee56:
Oh I can still. Before I did the nandroid restore of the CBW Froyo, I was running ROMs on the modXT720 sbf and could get into OpenRecovery via the extended power menu or holding the volume up key when starting (without applying the update.zip in stock recovery).
